Over the past 25 years, these teams each appeared in a state final one year, but in all other years, never made it past the second round of the playoffs.  Who are the teams?

 

Tampa Wharton? Tampa Chamberlin? Lake Brantley? Sarasota Booker?  Pensacola Catholic? Kings Academy? Hamilton County? Mandarin? 

That's all I got. I know a couple are right, but am pretty sure some are wrong.

...hmmm.  Well, Apopka played in a big game against this team the year this team went to the state final.  Would not be surprised if you were at that game.  

All the teams I can think of that meet the criterion have made several fairly deep runs. So, I have to admit I am stumped. I would have said Lake Brantley, but we already have that accounted for. So, I have no clue. I could not be Edgewater or Boone, or Dr. Phillips or Osceola or ...

I remember seeing this team play in the state final...such fond memories  The game was was on a delightful December day, which was a relief since they had been predicting a deluge that Saturday.  I had not gotten any sleep the night before, and was deliberating whether I should make the drive.  Turns out I did, so I was delirious come gametime.  There were big lines at the stadium, so there was a delay getting in, but it was worth the wait.  After the game, I met a friend from the area and we had a delicious dinner, feasting on sushi and some other delicacies.

I remember now. We played them in the semifinal and scored first but ended up losing to them. They lost one of their two star players in that semi and the next week melted down like a snowman in the May sun to Miramar. The team in question was the Deland Bulldogs! How could I forget the pain of that semi loss.

    • Complaining about North Florida slappies losing to South Florida powers is like someone graduating high school complaining that companies are only hiring college graduates and not them. And then a company saying ok to make it fair, we will open division and only hire high school graduates.     
    • First I want to express my apologies for my absence the last few months. Without going into much detail I have had some personal life struggles I have been dealing with on top of figuring out the direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com in. Things have finally settled out some over the last few weeks although I am not completely out of the woods just yet. Some of the decisions about what direction to take FloridaHSFootball.com have been forming over this time while I went through things. Part of me wondered if it was time to go, but really it is not at all. Thankfully, a loyal supporter near me in Gainesville decided to put their mouth where their money is and did a little investing and today FloridaHSFootball.com launched its first-ever Mobile App. With that said it comes with the sunset of the MVP Membership Subscriptions and thus FloridaHSFootball.com will be 100% free for the first time in a while. This comes as needing to get the clearances with Apple and Google and the current subscription platform we have is not syncing with Apple's system nor with the App itself. Its best we go in this direction to grow fans again and being able to put them facing forward with an app on their phone going forward. Here are the download links for the apps: iOS (Apple): https://apps.apple.com/us/app/floridahsfootball-com/id6477621728 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.floridahsfootball.app&hl=en_US&gl=US   For now the forums will not be available directly in the app. At some point I maybe looking at changing the whole forum software that could eventually integrate into the app. It will be a while before this happens so things will go on as they are here.   I also apologize for any of the spam and troll accounts that have managed to find their way around the security protocols in setting up new accounts. It seems every day these things find ways to pass through control systems. I am going to be looking at getting this solved and will keep an eye on things here as we go along.   Please feel free to reach out to me if you all need anything, want to chat or have any suggestions.   -- Josh  
    • They can definitely beat Central. My bulls is a toss up but I feel we should have the edge. EJ will be hard to stop though. Glad they not in 2A with us.
